Of Dreams and Nightmares

Description

A memory long forgotten is revived through a series of nightmares. But he can't remember the person nor the achingly familiar voice calling out for help. Then a stranger comes along, and a suppressed past is once again brought to light.

Foreword

Recollection

All it took was one glance before all the memories rushed into his mind like a tidal wave, the force of it nearly knocking him off his feet.

Blood.

Tears.

Flames.

The memories were saturated with pain. Yet within that pain was beauty, and perhaps he discovered the beauty too late.

Chapter 1: This is striking. I definitely get a sense that you know how to write.

Although, this could be stepped up a notch. I think that if you were to use a more dramatic delivery it would hike up the suspense. Using shorter sentences and more rough sounding words will add an extra boost. It's something the reader won't necessarily notice but you could level up the horror of the nightmare scense by adding more pause. More punctuation. To. Keep. Them. Hooked...on Every. Word.

Chapter 1: OH my gosh this is brilliance. I love it!!! ANd certainly not something I expected from you LOL, but yes... fantastic. I can see why it's your favorite, it just may become mine now too >.<

Perfectly done, I loved the hinting at the beginning when the boss joked about him selling his soul, and then the mismatched eyes are just an awesome thought. UGH I am a er for hapy endings, to be honest, so of COURSE I am still wishing for the 'Myungsoo finds a way to save Howon' chappie haha, but this was AMAZING <3

I'm honored to have read it *bows*
